What is Nutripuncture ?
Nutripuncture acts directly on cellular communication and exchanges, and it strengthens the circulation of information necessary for self-regulation of the body, providing rapid, targeted results.
Its objective is to strengthen the vitality of the body by promoting self-regulation, the innate capacity that enables it to interact optimally with the environment, to handle stress, pathogens, to be in phase with the seasonal cycle, and to respond coherently to sensory stimuli.
Nutripuncture is research work in progress, uninterrupted for more than 30 years, that relies upon thousand-year-old knowledge from Asian traditions, which consider the individual as a psycho-physical whole (in constant communication with the external environment) and the knowledge of Western medicine, enriched by the most recent discoveries in biochemistry, microbiology, and psychoneuroendocrinoimmunology (P.N.E.I.).
RESEARCH HISTORY
In the 1980s, a group of French researchers, inspired by Georges Lakovsky's work on body-environment interactions (especially on cellular oscillation) and that of Barbara McClintock (Nobel Prize in Medicine, 1983) on spontaneous genetic mutations, began to observe and evaluate the impact of the environment (natural, relational, and cultural) on the vitality and self-regulation of the body. Thus, they started to conduct their first studies at the Faculté d’Orsay (Paris) on the emerging properties presented by trace minerals when combined according to specific protocols, and their impact on the circulation of vital currents.
Barbara McClintock's work, which discovered the mechanisms for genetic mutations, started a debate about the vision of genes as "immutable" units of heredity and built the basis for a vision in which life is the fruit of an ongoing dialog between genes and environment. According to B. McClintock, genes are not the immutable cause of hereditary characteristics, but a dynamic system regulated by cells, the body as a whole, and the environment.
Gradually, researchers developed a method for interpreting clinical observations and evaluating the various parameters that affect individual psycho-physical vitality. This is how Nutripuncture was started.
An approach based on the assumption that the body is covered by a network of currents that ensure both real-time body-psyche communication and the body-environment relationship. This is a hyper-complex network that develops very early-on in embryonic development (before the hormonal and nervous system) to circulate the (electromagnetic) pulses necessary to ensure the cooperation, cellular coordination, and coherence of the body-psyche system.
Numerous disciplines have contributed, along with Asian traditions, to the development of Nutripuncture (PNEI, quantum medicine, neuroscience, psychology, microbiology, etc.).
A long road has been traveled, starting with the thousand-year-old principles of Asian medicine, to integrate them into the psycho-physical dynamic of modern humans, immersed in an environment saturated with information and many stimuli, much different from the one that, several thousands of years ago, enabled the understanding of relationships between environment and background, certainly simpler, and less contaminated.
Today humans are faced with a highly articulate, hyper-stimulating environment; they must process a large volume of information in real time, interact with a hyper-complex global society, and manage the relationships and conflicts that stem from it by calling upon their internal resources, often sorely tested by stress.
In Nutripuncture, the individual is always observed in his or her context, from which he or she is inseparable, as it is the source of essential information on the development of his or her faculties. Thus, the environment plays a definitive role in the creation of cognitive, sensory, and individual vocal potential.
It is clear that without qualitatively and quantitatively adequate stimuli, the vital currents (or meridians) that regulate body-psyche communication, as well as individual-environment interaction, will circulate more slowly, leaving part of the potential that everyone could express inactive.
